sENANoR INGALLS, ON SHAVING.

He Gives q Washington Reporter Valuable
Information on That and other Subjects:
WAsHIEGToE, September 11-Senator
Ingalls, is in town on his way 10 Philadel-
phia, where he is to take prominent part
in the celebration of the Constitutions
centennial. He was seen by reporter of
The Post, to whom in reply to a ques ion
as TO the object of his visit, he deliver I'd q
learned disquisition on shaving. Said the
President pro tenn, OF the United States
Senate.
Il thiI q man looks better when he is
shaved. Every man should shave. You
should shave, and you should not go to a
BARRIERS shop, you should shave yourself.
No gentleman should 60 TO a barber's
shop. 1t is a great waste OF time and
money. 1t costs fifteen cents-doesn't it?-
every time you get a barber to shave you,
and then there is community of soap
cups and brushes which is repugnant to
men of individuality. always shave my
self. AS part of ones regular toilet every
morning 1t does not take much time, and
instead of fifteen cents 1t doesn't cost more
than q cent. Then there is that happy
sense OF having acted like a gentleman
when it is over. Take my advice-shave,
and shave yourself.
BUY a Swedish rszor; the Swedish Is
the best it will cost 81. while an ordinary
razor would cost only 81, bat IL is worth
the cost. Then be sure and get badgers
hair brush; the hogs bristle Is not the
thing that a gentleman wants. Get bad
gers hair brush at any price; 1t won't cost
much. In buying cup, you can exercise
your own good taste. but be sure and use
no soap but Williams soap"

A FLING AT THE RURAL PRESS,
How Col. Robert |r1 Put His Foot into it
at Warsaw.

How Col Robert VI. Put His Foot into il
at Warsaw.
The secrets of the meeting OF the Re-
publican Editorial Association at War
saw are leaking out. A. Republican who
was there, and who is not an ardent ad-
miTer of the late would-be Lieutenant
Governor, said yesterday:
"Col. Robertson is noted among the
newspaper fraternity of the State for his
venom and hate of the country editors.
at Warsaw the other day he dropped into
the session of the Republican State Edito-
rial Association while resolutions OF
respect to the late veteran editor, rullis
of Lafay cite, were under discussion. Be
ing courteously asked to speak on the reso.
lutions he did so, but time nor place could
not restrin him. In his speech he said:
Above all, Tullls was original. He never
used freight train news or stereotype plates
This last was said with his unequalled bit
ter sheer. As nine-tenths of the editors
present use plates In their papers, and
knowing how Robertson despised the pro-
fession, they we're highly indignant at the
fling given them under such circumstances.
1t was the general remark after the meet
ing that Robertson had again put his foot
in bis mouth
There is q rumor afoat IN the State that
a resolution relative to Robertson and the
Lieutenant Governorship was at the pri-
vate business meeting of the editors laid on
table-eighty-one to four. This is start
ling.

Mr.. SAMUEL HASwAY, q representative
Republican, thoroughly educated In Re-
publican polytechnic politics, got away
with about $50, 900 OF the peoples money.
He pays back, after eight years, 81 500,
which leaves Mr.. Hanwsy So, 500 ahead
and the people that much behind, and Mr..
Hsnway will always be that much ahead.
Mr.. Hsnway has doubtless had that $780,
600 on interest for eight years at say 6per
cent, yielding him s., 800 year; for
eight years this would have Melted Mr..
Hanway $14, 400. Mr.. Hanwsy now settles
with the people, paying them 81, 500 The
account therefore stands about as follows:
Mr.. Samuel Hsnway, ex-Republican County
Treasurer,
IN ACCOUNT WITH THE PEOPLE. DIR.
For the amount OF cash collected and
not paid over according to law. $50 600
Interest on $4,000 for years at per
eent. Ia 4VO
ga 400
By amount paid on compromise 500
-
Net profit to Hanway $50 eco
Now the question is, who besides Mr..
Hanway got that $50, 900? If Mr.. Hanway
has had it all the time on interest, at per
cent, 1t has furnished him nice support,
and if he has lived economically, he ought
to have the original investment $4,000.
Taking into consideration the fact that
Mr.. Hanwsy IL representative Republican,
who has doubtless taken the SD degree in
Republican bookkeeping, the question
arises, would it not be well for the Journal
and the News to pay more attention to
certain Republican "gangs" who. when
they get chance play the .Hanway game
on the dear people.

DORSEY IN INDIANA.

a ccIIesI ondent of the Chicago News.
in spes king of Dorsey's work in this State
in 1880. says:
Mr. Dorsey first sent for one man from
each congressional district in Indiana 10
meet him In Chicsgo. From these men
he got the names of two good, active men
In each county, and sent for them. From
these he got the names OF Two from each
voting precinct in the State. and sent for
them TO meet him in indianapolis. These
he instructed to return home and make a
close canvass of the voters of their respac-
tive precincts-Democratic, Republican.
Prohibition, Greenback, and doubtful-and
bring 1t to him on a certain day. He then
gave these men instructions how to manage
their campaigns from that till election
day, and generally paid the expenses OF
these trips out OF money provided by the
national committee, and sometimes gave
them money to oe used In getting out the
vote. Ii Is readily seen that campaign
conducted In this thorough and expensive
fashion in State as large as Indiana would
cost a good deal, without provision for
buying any votes. don't believe the
question of buying votes was mentioned
In ali these conferences, and money was
not provided aud directed for the purchase
of votes. Liberal provision was made for
were purchased local men did il at their
own motion and mostly with their own
money.
This correspondent evidently does not
know Dorsey and the Denison House gang
of $780, or else he is lying. Mr.. Conner,
the Chairman Of the Newton County
Republican Committee of that year says
that he met Dorsey at the Denison House
Just before the October election Of 1880.
Dorsey asked him how much Republican
msjority Newton County could give. Mr..
Conner replied about 300. Dorsey replied
that It must be doubled that Newton must
be made to give 800 Republican majority.
Conner told him that 1t was impossible.
Dorsey laughed and reminded him that
Newton County bordered on the Illinois
State line; that voters must be brought
from that State and that Porter must have
900 majority over Frank Landers. Conner
furthermore stated that Dorsey offered him
several thousand dollars to aid the scheme
and hat all chairman of county commit
tecg he'd similar amount at.thsir disposal

INLAND Ratas for Exnort.

NRw YORK, Sept. l9.-The restoration of
the in land rate on export freight which
was agreed upon by committee of repre-
sentatlvts of the central traffic association
and the Trunk lines on Tuesday last, goes
into effect to day. The inland rate on ex-
port freight is in accordance with the for
mer agreement OF the various roads. 1t
Yves never formally abrogated bat the rail-
roads individually cut below the figures
agreed upon. The rate to the seaboard at
New York from Chicago for the present
will be 80 cents q hundred on provisions
and 80 cents q hundred on grain. At Com
missioner Finks Office to-day nothing could
be learned about the amount of cutting
which has been done by the railroads for
export freight It was thought there that
the main effect OF such cutting had been to
decrease the revenue of the railroads. The
dissemination against New York city as a
seaboard port was thought to have amount
ed to nothing

LAST winter Mr.. Patten, then a member
Of the Indiana Leg islature, said that War
den Howard, Of the Jacksonville peniten-
tiary, owed the State $75, 900. Since then
Mr.. Patsea has succeeded Mr.. Howard, a. d
now declares that the amount of the in
debtedness Is only about 81, 500. The asst
statement is made after an opportunity TO
investigate fully, and ought 10 quiet the
clamor of the Republican press of Indiana
polls, who keep sUsrling aud swapping at
Capt. Howard.-Louisville Times.
You don't know the gang hereabouts If
you expect it to quit lying about the How
ard shortage. When Kitchener put the
defalcation at $4,000 Mr.. Pattsn thought
that it was sn ordinary Republican lie and
concln6ed that he was doing the faiE thing
by cutting it in two, when he should have
divided it by twenty. Mr.. Patten repre-
scented the coed Old Democratic county of
Sullivan, where telling the truth is re-
gsrded as one Of the Cardinal virtues.

THERE are thousands OF honest men, who
have abandoned the Republican party
and among the number is Gen. A. @. Nc
Clurg, Of Chicago, who could not stomach
Blaine. Being.interviewed, Gen. McClurg
said:
ST voted for Mr.. Cleveland at the last
election, and, therefore, am not in good
standing in the Republican party. If Presi-
dent Cleveland should conduct the affairs
of the nation to the close of his term as he
has since his Inauguration, no man can
get my vote away from him. Mr.. Cleve-
land is not perfect. but l think he is the
best President we have had since Abraham
Lincoln"
In all OF the States there are Republicans
who love their country better than they do

corrupt, viii not act with 1t. These men
will not oil vote the Democratic ticket, but
Thousands of them, like Gen. McClurg, viii
